Now after lunch I took a drive about Wapa, to the downtown area I love, and checked out the Community Market there, They have been renovating for over 2 years now and is becoming an amazing store, Picked up a couple of deals there then back to Aldies where I picked up a very nice 10 lb spiral cut ham for Easter, wow what a deal 89 cents a lb, no matter the exchange it was still an awesome deal.

Back home by noon and checked out the pool. Hey nobody there , perfect will be nice and quiet, Yesterday (Sunday) many families lots of kids, close to 50 people there and very loud. No thanks I can wait till today when it is nice and quiet. I soaked in the hot tub for a while and swam a few laps of this lovely huge pool. Read for a while and dried off. This is this first time I went swimming all winter and likely the last for a while.

ReplyDeleteIt is only in Ohio that we have really noticed the drive through Beer Caves like this. Some states we have seen drive through window for a liquor store. It was a fun day oh and the Ham is for Easter Dinner with our kids.

ReplyDeleteIt sure was a nice surprise and really such a small world. This pool is wonderful when not busy like this, do love it here, but we soon gotta go. Dinner was yummy and the nice sunset as well was a great way to end the day.
DeleteYou certainly are having nice weather. That is a lovely RV park with top notch amenities. So many places are now rundown and not kept up. The town is really interesting. Enjoy your last day in the US.
ReplyDeleteWe are loving this weather usually is a very nice here for our last stay in the US. This park had new owners about 3 years ago, Doing upgrades and selling memberships like crazy, so they are putting lots into the park. Wapakoneta is a very interesting town we enjoy checking out.
